A visit to National Palace Museum

Yesterday, November 24, I went to National Palace Museum(故宮博物院)with my classmates. Because we have to do our Chinese homework so we went to the museum at 9:00 A.M.

When we arrived the museum, there were already had a lot of foreign tourists, most of them come form Japan, they usually speak softly to each others, some tourists are from Korea, they talk in a little loud volume, some are from China, they usually speak in a very loud voice, I thought it was very bad because that would made the museum into a market. Expect Japanese, Korean, and Chinese, we also saw some French and English, we discovered that we, Taiwanese, were less than those foreigners, we were wondering that National Palace Museum is a museum in our country, or in foreign country. I thought we should spend more time to visit this museum because those things in the museum, are our above price treasure, we should be more concentrate on them.

After a half day visiting, we saw many beautiful artworks, each of them were time-tested, I think the fad would quickly passed away, but the authentic treasure would still beautiful even thousand years later. Most of exhibits would collections from the royal family, some of them even were appreciated by emperors, it was hard to believe that exhibits in front of you were in front of many emperors centenaries ago, and it was a sigh that things change with the passing of years but those artworks never change. Those refulgent dynasties and great people were no longer exist, but their masterpieces were pass down for thousands of years. I like to visit museum because those artwork stand the time-tested, that attract me more than those fad
